Taste like a light IPA. Very bubbly, and feels like it "disappears" in your mouth.

Best before October 2012.

A: This beer is a beautiful looking pale ale despite no matter what glass I use, I’ve drank a 6 pack now all out of different glasses and this looks stunning in all. A crystal clear amber body shows off a lot of carbonation activity, this beer is alive! A sizable very light tan creamy head sits on-top with good retention.

S: The aroma here is pretty nice as well, a bit grassy and resinous pine with hints of citrus. The aroma has a nice strength and a good balance.

T: The wonderful aroma blends with a strong malt base. Grass and pine with hints of sweet citrus make up the hop profile providing a moderate bitterness. This is very clean.

M: Creamy body.

O: This is a really solid pale ale, I don’t know why it’s rated so low, but I’m really enjoying this. The hops come through fresh and there’s good balance, this is very drinkable. If I could get this in New Jersey this would be possibly my favorite lawn-mower beer. I’m wondering if others have maybe had old bottles, or the brewery is very inconsistent, but this is a solid beer.

Actually my wife’s aunt let introduced me to this beer... Hopy refreshing pale ale nice citrus aroma...

Nice caramel malt back drop, citrus and pine hops, moderate bitterness, clean finish. A bit thin, but I enjoyed this, very drinkable.

@Pilsner Petes East Coast Gathering-growler–pours a light tan head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is pine, bready. Taste is some bitter pine, sweet light malt-bready, semi-dry. Thanks notalush for sharing.

On tap @ the Brewery-Clear golden color w/a slight white head. Floral hop aroma. Mild pine hop flavor w/traces of grass & some good carbonation. Very easy drinking session brew, not complicated, but very tasty. This is their "transition brew" for the BMC drinkers, but it is very tasty. Got a growler to go, which kept very well til the next weekend-which I’m drinking now w/adding these ratings! Not overly hopped like some pale ales. Long, smooth hop finish.

light gold with moderate white head. nose of herbal hops with a touch of oxidation. firm bitterness for the style prior to herbal hop notes with perhaps a touch of munich malt, but very little malt component with a touch of yeast esters. a very dry finish, with the oxidation making it somewhat acrid feel. an aggressive version of the style and not bad

A nice hoppy pale ale. It reminds almost of a two hearted light, though nothing really match two hearted. Light sweetness. Floral hops. Some tropical fruit. Nice and easy to drink.

On tap at the Red Roost - Winterhaven, MD. Aroma is a light salt of hop leaf, lemon sugar, and general alcohol. Clean, floral and light. Nice aroma. Pours a darker golden, with a soapy head in whitish. Flavor is a milder version of the ESB. A generic hop leaf and resin citrus over plain pale malt. Bright. Fresh. Clean. Extremely drinkable. Nice and solid, but nothing too crazy.

Bottled. Poured clear, bright orange with a short, easily-resuscitated off-white head. The aroma picked up caramel and biscuity malts with light citrus and floral hop accents.. simple and well-balanced. The flavor found biscuity and pale malts, with light peppery pine and a touch of citrus bitterness around.. dry and grainy on the edges.. some tanginess too, especially on the crisp, refreshing finish. Lighter-bodied and well-balanced on the palate.. clean feel with good transitions.. very good drinker.
